The American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) estimates 400,000+ embryos in storage in the US.

Reasons for Choosing - Embryo Adoption

Many wonder why a couple would choose embryo adoption rather than adopting a child already born. There are many reasons. For couples that have experienced long-term infertility, embryo adoption offers the unique opportunity to be pregnant, to bond with their child prior to birth, and to give birth. Embryo adoption also gives the adopting parents the ability to choose the genetic parents’ characteristics.  In addition, embryo adoption may be much more affordable than traditional adoption in the US.  It also offers couples privacy and secrecy, so that they do not need to be concerned with societal acceptance of their adopted child.

You Can Make a Difference - Embryo Donation

When a couple who has stored embryos decides that they do not want to add any more children to their family, they must decide what to do with those remaining embryos.  By donating them to another couple, the donating parents give each of their embryos a chance to be born while also giving a childless couple the hope of parenthood. 

 

Embryo adoption can be an extremely attractive option for all these individuals. For more information on our Embryo Adoption Program, please write to Mrs. Michelle Sims at michelle@reproductivehealthctr.com.
